Dr. Regina Benjamin, surgeon general of the United States, is warning American women of an impediment to a healthy, active life: their hairstyles.
Benjamin said that the expensive products and time-consuming procedures that some women, especially African American women, invest in to straighten and control their tight curls may deter them from working out. After all, just a little moisture could undo the hairdo that was the result of a lot of time and money.

Does anyone expect an Obama appointee to have common sense?
This is esp. true of the black extremist women he has appointed (Lisa Jackson), though the white ones are among the stupidest on earth (Napolitano, Sebelius).
The men aren’t any better - Holder, Holdren, Hansen, Sunstein, Lu, etc.
Ah, she’s beautiful.
What now? Is the government about to determine what hairdo is appropriate?
“Great leadership we have.....”
Yup. A bunch of F’n idiots we have running the country (into the ground).

So what’s her excuse?
Not only is she racist and irrelevant, but she has her hair straightened out and she’s as fat as a hippo.
I’ve noticed that over the years, the “Surgeon General” has become nothing more than a place to stick a token minority. Just what exactly does a Surgeon General do???
Operates on generals. Spouts the liberal crap the commie president wants to boost his programs.
I am a white woman with naturally curly hair. All I have to do is walk outside into any humidity. The hair I spent an hour drying straight is now curly. Why does it have to be racial??
The truth is that their hair IS different, and requires different care from that of Anglos ...
LOL! You go, Girl!
The curls are usually bigger. But I envy you, I’d love to have wild curly hair.
